Setting the Work Centers in the Routing of Each Product

Specific business case:we have a shared resource(equipment) on which we run products from two different business units, each having the business unit's cost center assigned to its routing. What is the best approach in setting the work centers in the routing of each product in order to have a clear accountability/costs on that resource?

We tried to create a master resource, but it was not accepted by the F&A.

A work center hierarchy may work well in this scenario. Define the shared resource as two separately labeled work centers. Put the appropriately labeled work center in each Business Unit's routing(s). Roll the two work center up to one common work center so that you can report out at the one common work center or at the individual level.
